"Clay worked on our 15 yr old stall shower that we had done little to maintain. He was to replace all the grouting for the tumbled marble floor tile and the grout at the intersection of the floor with all vertical surfaces made up of larger marble tile. We initially discovered that the floor grouting was not drying uniformly. Multiple visits and several work arounds later, only confirmed my confidence that Clay had the experience to bring whatever skills were necessary to more than resolve our grout drying problem. Clay is a PRO, a "People Person", and dedicated to satisfying his clients' needs. My review (prior to hiring ACT ONE) of earlier references, was more than confirmed through performance on our job. I heartily recommend Clay for similar projects. Alan S. Boston"

"Flavors did and outstanding job fixed our badly botched tile work in our bathroom. He is very detailed oriented and you would even know he was there when the job is complete. He is very neat and cleans throughout the project. If anyone would like to be completely satisfied hire Flavius Tile. You won't be sorry.."

"I am a new homeowner in Methuen, MA. Alpha tile did our kitchen flooring, backs plash, and our bathroom. The outcome exceeded our expectations. For our kitchen backs plash I chose a mosaic tile which is not easy to work with. I can honestly say it looks impeccable. Everyone who has been to our house including those working on the house during the renovation mention how great their work is. They go above and beyond! Definitely recommend."

"Nuno did a beautiful job on what I thought was a small project but was more complex than I thought. (Removing glass mosaic backsplash, replacing drywall, installing new subway tile and grout.) He was on time, protected other surfaces, cleaned up meticulously, and very nice guy. I would hire him again for other projects. Had to follow up once for a quote after initial contact but had to do this with all the contractors recommended. After that, very responsive."

"The team was incredible - came on a Saturday to give us a quote and were back on Friday to demo our kitchen and finished by mid-day Sunday. They were so accommodating, so fast, gave us the best quote, took all steps to keep the work contained/the house clean, and the tile job is perfect - they made sure the floor in our 100 yr old house was even and ready fir the tile job. Will hire again to do other work! Highly recommend."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Tile will almost always last longer than laminate flooring, regardless of the type of tile installed. Porcelain tile can last for 75 years or more with proper care, and even less durable ceramic tile will last for 60 years or more, provided they’re installed by a tile professional. On the other hand, laminate flooring has an average lifespan of around 20 years, and you might only get 10 to 15 years out of low-cost laminate flooring. As such, tile will add far more value to your home than laminate.

Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface. 

There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.

Tile installation can be expensive because it requires more time and labor to install than many other materials. For example, laminate flooring can click and lock into place, and carpet comes in large rolls that you can secure to the floor. On the other hand, tiles need to be cut, laid individually, grouted, and left to cure.
